Notable errors
ProFootballTalk posted and thus spread the unconfirmed rumor on January 25, 2007 that broadcaster and former Pittsburgh SteelersquarterbackTerry Bradshaw had died in a car accident. This proved to be incorrect.[1]
A similar instance occurred on September 14, 2009 when the crew of Profootballtalk.com erroneously reported a quote from Keyshawn Johnson in referring to Joe Flacco as a "bum".[3] A correction to this was posted on the September 15.[4]
